Quantum Computing

This course introduces the basics of quantum computing.

Topics Include:

• Qubits, entanglement, and non-local correlations
• Quantum gates, circuits, and compilation algorithms
• Basic quantum algorithms such as Simon’s algorithm and Grover's algorithm
• Shor's factoring algorithm and the hidden subgroup problem
• Hamiltonian simulation; stabilizer circuits, the Gottesman-Knill theorem
• The basics of quantum error correction
